Roll to your side
Then rub your eyes before sunrise
On the bedside table
You’re able to find your device
A screen will light up
A fuse that’ll burn all day
Who will put up what
& who will like it? uh huh yeah okay
We used to get along
We used to bite our tongues
We used to never know
Just who’s into Q & guns & God?
Who throws back way too way too much?
Who's taking pics all alone at the bar?
Now I know, what you are
That tool that you knew from hometown school’s having 12 kids
Check on your ex & they’re sexy, happy, married, rich
Who do you know, who bowed down to an orange clown?
They used to yell "If you don’t like it leave," but hey who’s laughing now?
The link in is my bio that we both know that you won’t click
You say, "Yeah, we get it, you're still making music but man take a hint"
If it was to be, it probably would’ve been by now
I really should just quit it with these songs but man I don’t know how
Knowing as I write this one
The words sound so wrong
Shoulda stuck to songs for Twilight Zone

Too Big a Fire

At 3 in the morning in the one car on the roads
The street lines mean nothing nothing at all
Choose either side sit back take your time
Smirk as I’m steering from side to side
I take time to be sure I’m alive
Outside of my normal frame of mind
Deep water alone walk the woods
Or train tracks or on the roof
Build too big a fire then stand just a bit too close,
Eyes shut palms up be
First to take the dive through the break at night
Swimming in & out the other side
Dark early morning, shirtless in the yard
The dog plays in snowfall no cares at all
Under foggy breath I smiled shrugged & said
Endorphins are funny some of the time
I take time to be sure I’m alive
Outside of my normal frame of mind
Deep water alone walk the woods
Or train tracks or on the roof
Build too big a fire then stand just a bit too close
Eyes shut palms up be
First to take the dive through the break at night
Swimming in & out the other side (and out the other side)
Pull back the curtain, step out to the edge
Change what you’re thinking to what you said
Don’t waste the time before that fire dies
Well, I sure can’t sing but at least I tried
Take the time to be sure I’m alive
Outside of my normal frame of mind
Deep water alone walk the woods
Or train tracks or on the roof
Build too big a fire then stand just a bit too close
Eyes shut palms up be
First to take the dive through the break at night
Swimming in & out the other side
Deep water alone walk the woods
Or train tracks or on the roof
Build too big a fire then stand just a bit too close
palms up
Be first to take the dive through the break at night
Swimming in & out the other side (and out the other side)
